2nd Dwelling
Completed
At Loch in the South Gippsland region, PanelTech Systems has completed a second dwelling using our Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) — with the floor, walls, and roof installed in just three and a half hours.
This project highlights the impressive speed, precision, and efficiency of our prefabricated building system. Each section was craned into place seamlessly, delivering a strong, airtight, and thermally efficient structure in record time.
Working closely with the builder, our team ensured a smooth process from manufacturing to on-site installation. The result — a fast, clean, and high-performance build with minimal waste and reduced labour costs, ready to stand strong for years to come.
The process
The Loch installation was carefully planned and executed for maximum speed, accuracy, and safety. Each SIP was delivered to site pre-packed in installation order, allowing the team to move seamlessly from set-out and bottom plate fixing to standing and bracing the wall panels. Once the walls were in place, the large-format roof panels were craned into position with precision.
As the structure came together, joints were sealed progressively — achieving a weather-tight shell in record time. This efficient, well-coordinated process meant windows, doors, and cladding could be installed almost immediately, bringing the second dwelling to lock-up within just a few days.
Stage 01 - Site Prep & Subfloor
Plates were accurately set out on a raised stilt structure before installing the SIPs subfloor system, ensuring a precise and level foundation from the very beginning. The floor panels were then craned into place and securely fixed to the structure, creating a strong and stable base for the build.
Stage 02 - Wall Panels Installed
SIP wall panels were stood, joined, and braced into position.
Stage 03 - Roof Panels Craned In
Large-format roof SIPs were lifted into place with precision and secured.
Stage 04 - Lock-Up Achieved
Windows, doors, and cladding followed, delivering a weather-tight, secure structure ready for interior trades.
